The Lion King: Diamond Edition“Simba, Mufasa, Nala, Timon and Pumbaa are back and better than ever this fall when Disney’s “The Lion King” roars into theaters and homes in breathtaking 3D. A special two-week theatrical extravaganza kicks off Sept. 16, 2011, showcasing the Oscar®- and Golden Globe®-winning film on the big screen in Disney Digital 3D™ for the first time ever, and its highly anticipated home entertainment debut kicks off October 4, celebrating the Diamond Edition release of the epic movie “The Lion King” in high-definition Blu-ray™ and Blu-ray 3D™.”

Nearly a decade after The Lion King originally appeared on the big screen, viewers can now be immersed in “the circle of life” like never before with the films 3D debut. Featuring pristine high definition picture and sound, the Blu-ray creates an incredible at-home experience with a host of picture and sound enhancements, interactive features and bonus content, including a new set of funny animated bloopers.

I distinctly remember watching The Lion King during my childhood, and I could often be found watching both The Lion King and the Little Mermaid over, and over, and over again. Having the opportunity to watch it with my own children all of these years later, was truly a different and dynamic experience. I enjoyed watching my girls reactions during the movie, and their smiles came to life as they began to connect with the characters within the movie.

“The Lion King”: Diamond Edition home entertainment release will be available from the Disney Vault for a limited time only beginning October 4!
